MG-5 Launch 5LB Magnesium Anode
with Plastisol Coating

Weighs about 5 pounds and contains cast-in steel strap with 5/8" holes for mounting.  Widely used on steel hull service boats.  Anode has a plastisol (polyvinyl chloride) coating which serves as an excellent current barrier shield.  The plastisol coating is designed to be cut away from the anode as needed for adjusting surface area contact and current output.
